Mission
Our Mission at Bengal Rescue is to rescue Bengal cats and other hybrid cats. Hybrid cats also include Savannah cats, Toyger cats, and Chausie cats.
Program accomplishments
- We work with individuals who rescue, transport, foster, and care for these cats who are in a transitionary state. At times, we help current Bengal owners place their cats in new homes. In other cases, we rescue cats from shelters and place them into foster care while we search for their forever home. It takes so many resources and individuals to saves the lives of these cats. We couldn't do this without each individual's participation and support. We ensure that all of the cats in our program are seen by a Veterinarian and receive Medical assessment and treatment.Expenses $52,069 · revenue $81,111
